Embarrassing things you do

[Poli "Lissy" Drax]

If I get too excited about something, I lose control of my hands for a short amount of time and end up flailing one of them. It sounds childish, but it's actually subconscious and I have little to no control over it, much to my frustration. It's been the case since I've been a child, and it is awful when in public, because people often notice and say nothing, but give you that look of "..What on Earth..?".

I used to do something like that when I was little only I would tuck my elbows up against my sides and flapp the lower parts of my arms as fast as I could like little wings whenever I got exited. I think it was just a way to burn of the energy I sapose. I finally stopped when I went to the zoo with my friends and family once and was doing it a lot (because lets face it, for a smal child, the zoo is the freaking BOMB) and literally everyone in the group called me out on it and told me to knock it off.

Sometimes my instincts from my wrestling days kick in when I'm shaking someone's hand. I automatically grab the upper part of their arm because I used to do hand control drills daily. I usually catch myself, or just play it off as some weird "secret handshake". But it does make for an embarrassing display when I'm greeting someone and I make it seem like I'm feeling them up or something

At work I have to clean the back room so I always put on music while I do my work. the other day my boss walked in to me singing and dancing around. he laughed so hard he almost fell over

I was playing a game and a friend of mine mentioned that he broke up, so I typed in the chat something along the lines of "Well, she was probably a bint anyhow" and sent it. Just before it went through, he said they had ended on good terms. >.< He understood my confusion, though.

Did a sort through of my pantry.  Found 7 jars of Vegemite, two were unopened.  I guess I should sort it more often and probably stop buying Vegemite

[MaskaTheOtter]

Mmm Vegemite

I put Wasabi on my burgers... I just think it goes so well with it

I speak to myself when I'm trying to solve a complex problem.

That's kinda not so embarrassing......A whole lot of folks did that in our mathematics class and the teacher got furious about it.

I accidentally thrown my change from vending machine into the dustbin with an empty coke bottle and it clanked REALLY loud inside.

I have left pieces of paper in the back pockets of my pants, thrown them in the wash, and ended up with a pocket of 1000 paper crumbs that was hard to clean out. I have done this more times than I can count.

[Aiko Kitsune]

I talk to myself all the time

I used to be a dancer throughout my childhood and into my high school years. Sometimes when I think no ones looking I will do ballet moves. I will also contort my body in the very limber poses. lol I guess I like to know I'm still limber and can bend well.

I wear around a beanie with ears all the time and it also comes off all the time, but rather than stop wearing it im content to just make constant adjustments throughout my day.

As for me, I suffer from properly diagnosed OCD, and among other things; I only consume food in odd numbers. E.g. I will eat pretzels if there is 1, 3, 5... etc. in my hand at a time. It gets really furrstrating when I am consuming snacks that are very small and handfuls usually equate to 20 or 30 pieces at a time (like mini M&Ms). I used to be a lot worse, with a wider range of "issues"... but I have learned to control it more.

I don't have 0CD, but I do this with even numbers. When I eat an odd number of crackers or something, I have to tell myself the crumbs added up to make it even again.
